In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Bridgewater James Limited, LLC as of December 31, 2025, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

#### **Basis for Opinion**

These financial statements are the responsibility of Bridgewater James Limited, LLC's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on Bridgewater James Limited, LLC's financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to Bridgewater James Limited, LLC in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

#### **Auditor's Report on Supplemental Information**

The supplemental information contained in Schedule I - Computation of Net Capital Requirements, Schedule TI - Computation for Determination of Reserve Requirements Pursuant to Rule 15c3-3, and Schedule III - Information Relating to the Possession or Control Requirements Under Rule 15c3-3 has been subjected to audit procedures performed in conjunction with the audit of Bridgewater James Limited, LLC's financial statements. The supplemental information is the responsibility of Bridgewater James Limited, LLC's management. Our audit procedures included determining whether the supplemental information reconciles to the financial statements or the underlying accounting and other records, as applicable, and performing procedures to test the completeness and accuracy of the information presented in the supplemental information. In forming our opinion on the supplemental information, we evaluated whether the supplemental information, including its form and content, is presented in conformity with 17 C.F.R. §240. l 7a-5.

# 1. Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

## Business

Bridgewater James Limited, LLC (the "Company") is a single member limited liability company managed by Mr. William J. Bennington. The Company is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission as a fully disclosed securities broker-dealer and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. ("FINRA"). The Company provides placement services to private investment funds.

As a limited liability company, the member's liability is limited to amounts reflected in the member's capital account.

The Company maintains its cash in a bank deposit account which at times may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such account and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit **risk.** 

## Equipment

Equipment includes furniture and office equipment recorded at cost of \$9,579, net of accumulated depreciation of \$9,535, or \$44 net. Depreciation is computed on an accelerated basis using an estimated economic life of 3 years.

## Revenue Recognition

During 2025, the Company did not generate any revenue and did not have any contracts with customers.

{9}------------------------------------------------

#### Single Reportable Segment

The Company conducts its business activities and reports financial results as a single reportable brokerage services segment. The CODM (Managing Member) makes decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance in a manner consistent with the way the Company operates its business and presents their financial results. The nature of business and accounting policies of the brokerage services segment are the same as described in the description of business and summary of significant accounting policies notes.

### Income Taxes

The Company is treated as a single member limited liability company for all relevant jurisdictions and its taxable income and taxes paid, if any, are included with the income tax return of the member. Management has concluded that the Company is not subject to income taxes in any jurisdiction and that there are no uncertain tax positions that would require recognition in the financial statements. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes is reflected in the accompanying financial statements. If the Company were to incur an income tax liability in the future, interest on any income tax liability would be reported as interest expense and penalties on any income tax liability would be reported as income taxes. Management's conclusions regarding uncertain tax positions may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based upon ongoing analyses of tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof as well as other factors.

#### Use of Estimates

The financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). Financial statements prepared on a U.S. GAAP-basis require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts and disclosures reported in the financial statements and

{10}------------------------------------------------

accompanying notes. Such estimates and assumptions could change in the future as more information becomes known, which could impact the amounts reported and disclosed herein.

### 2. Net Capital Requirements

The Company is subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission Uniform Net Capital Rule (SEC Rule 15c3-1 ), which requires the maintenance of minimum net capital and requires that the ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital, both as defined, shall not exceed 15 to 1. At December 31, 2025, the Company had net capital of \$12,668 which was \$7,668 in excess of its required net capital of \$5,000. The Company's aggregate indebtedness to net capital ratio was 0.3447 to 1.

### 3. Operating Losses and Capital Contributions

The Company has generated no revenues and has recurring losses from operations. The sole member is committed, and has the ability to contribute capital, as necessary, so that the Company can meet its financial obligations.

The sole member has currently evaluated the Company's ability to meet its obligations and has assessed that the Company will have sufficient cash to meet its obligations over the next year.

#### 4. Financial Instruments not Carried at Fair Value

The carrying value of financial assets and liabilities approximate estimated fair value. The company's financial instruments are classified within the fair value hierarchy as follows:

Cash is carried at Level 1

{11}------------------------------------------------

## 5. Commitments & Contingencies

At December 31, 2025 the Company did not have any commitments & contingencies requiring disclosure.

## 6. Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated subsequents through the date of the Report Of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, the date the financial statements were available to be issued and did not note any events requiring recognition for disclosure.

Our review was conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and, accordingly, included inquiries and other required procedures to obtain evidence about Bridgewater James Limited, LLC's compliance with the Footnote 74 of the SEC Release No, 34-70073.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to management's statements referred to above for them to be fairly stated, in all material respects, based upon the Company's business activities contemplated by Footnote 74 of the SEC Release No. 34-70073 adopting amendments to 17 C.F.R. § 240. 1 7a-5, and related SEC Staff Frequently Asked Questions.
